    Any items worth purchasing from the store that aren’t available in-game?

    Apologies if this is a duplicate post but couldn’t find one similar. Just curious to see if there are any items worth purchasing that aren’t available in-game such as a weapon or certain camo/vest etc.? Thanks

    The Crye shirt is the only thing I got (annoyed that I can't get the Crye pants without kneepads without buying the Year 1 Pass which I'm not inclined to do, but I digress), but that's only because the game gives you 200 credits to start with, TBH. Everything else I either don't want/need or can be found in the game.

    With the exception of the "MK14 Assault - Brown" there are no weapons or gear in the store that alter game-play.

    The reason that this weapon is considered game altering is that the MK14 Assault is currently the only DMR that works with the Sharpshooter ability exploit, and it is only obtainable from the raid.

    (I am not encouraging you to purchase this weapon, or to use the exploit.)

    If I recall correctly, it also has the legitimate advantage of using a UBGL which is unique for a DMR.

    I have to admit I've purchased a few things from the store to fit various role-playing scenarios, but I wouldn't say anything is a "must have".

    Nope, don't waste your money. Unless of course you have the extra 600 Ghost Coins from the compensation.

    Yes and no. The MK14 Assault, including the store bought Brown version, is the only DMR that allows the use of the UGL. But because you can obtain the non-Brown version from the raid, it's not a "pay-2-win" item.

    The only item that I felt was a must have, was the Stealth Balaclava. I like obscuring my face, without needing to wear a full mask. Yet the only free item that does that, is the bandana, bit it just looks wrong in this game.

    No! And Ubisoft should not be selling extras for a broken game. Year 1 should get for nothing, as have not had any advantage with it eg: waste of money. Seems GREED is their main objective, screw the Customers.
